H/W: 6-1 205 lb. B/T: L/L DOB: 3/28/88
Kalish played at both Low-A Greenville and High-A Lancaster this season hitting .273 with 5 HR 46 RBI and 19 SB in 114 games. Kalish has good bat speed that produces line drives but not much loft right now, though it is thought that he should develop 15-20 HR power in the future. Kalish had a respectable 61 BB/99 K ratio as a leadoff hitter and his above average speed serves him well on the basepaths and as a centerfielder. Defensively, Kalish has good CF range and an average arm. Kalish needs to cut back on his strikeout numbers and increase his power output next season in order to ascend to elite prospect status. His blend of competitiveness, work ethic, and athleticism are ample reasons to be optimistic that he will do so.
2009 Projection: Kalish will go back to Lancaster where he struggled in a brief stint last season. Being a hitter's league, expect Kalish's numbers to blossom. His ceiling is quite high and he reminds me of a cross between Jacoby Ellsbury and J.D. Drew Expect him to hit .300-.315 with 10-15 HR 60-75 RBI and 20-25 SB. If he performs well at Lancaster, he should move to AA Portland at some point in the season.
